Eight Varied Pieces For Orchestra-Three new collections of varied pieces for orchestra for players from beginner to grade 3 standard.This collection of three books each containing eight varied pieces has been compiled to capture the imagination of young players and to introduce them to a wide range of musical styles.Special effects appropriate to each instrument provide additional learning points and great entertainment both in rehearsal and performance. There are glissandos for strings and trombone flutter tonguing for flute and trumpets (for those able to) and a range of vocal sounds for all!The scoring allows these pieces to be played by variouscombinations of instruments. Ideally your orchestra should have some instruments from each section but if not (for example no brass) then the supplementary piano part (available separately) can be used to fill the gaps. It can also be used to provide extra support in rehearsals.As well as the normal percussion parts some of the pieces make use of a drum kit. For orchestras without a drum kit player a drum kit and bass backing track is available to download free of charge either as MP3 or WAV files.OrchestrationDescant recorder Treble recorder Flute 1 Flute 2 or Oboe Clarinet 1 Clarinet 2 Alto Sax Bassoon Horn in F Horn in Eb Trumpet 1 Trumpet 2 Trombone (Bass clef) Trombone (Treble clef) Timpani Drum Kit Percussion 1 Percuission 2 Percussion 3.Strings (Violin 1 Violin 2 Violin 3 Viola Cello Bass)Orchanics 2 contains:-Marching through Mud (Richard Ling); When I was a lad (from HMS Pinafore); Ghost Ride (Richard Ling); Largo (Dvorak); Battle Zone (Richard Ling); Persian March (J Strauss II); Lazy Horse (Richard Ling); Good King Wenceslas.

Of Elgar's five Pomp and Circumstance Marches the first in D is the best known as it includes Land of Hope and Glory. The origin of the title of these marches is a speech in Shakespeare's 'Othello':O now for ever/ Farewell the tranquil mind! farewell content!/ Farewell the plumed troops and the big wars/ That makes ambition virtue!/ O farewell!/ Farewell the neighing steed and the shrill trump / The spirit-stirring drum th' ear-piercing fife / The royal banner and all quality / Pride pomp and circumstance of glorious war!This arrangement has been made to make it more accessible to the average orchestra; the instruments marked with an asterisk in the orchestrationlist above may be omitted if necessary.Duration: 6 minutes OrchestrationPiccolo 2 Flutes 2 Oboes 2 Clarinets in A or Bb Bass clarinet* 2 Bassoons 2 Horns in F 2 Trumpets in Bb 3 Trombones Tuba Timpani Percussion (Snare drum Triangle Bass drum Cymbals) Strings (Violin 1 Violin 2 Viola Cello Bass) (* = instruments optional)

Score-Jean Berger's Short Overture For Strings (2 Violins Viola Cello Bass).This score takes approximately 5 minutes to perform. It was written with the purpose of enlarging the repertoire ofstring music that - while not without challenge- could yet be played and performed by an amateur group. The emphasis is on the word 'amateur'. Hence all dynamic and tempo indications ought to be interpreted flexibly and should beadapted to the needs and the level of the technical proficiency nof the performing ensemble.

The theme from the film 'The Big Country' is surely the epitome of 'Western' music: you can see the cowboys the cattle the arid landscape the waggons spread out before you! Jerome Moross wrote a large amount of music but nothing that quite matched up to the brilliance of this piece. Arranged here for full orchestra by Richard Ling. Score and Parts.Orchestration: 2 Flutes 2 Oboes 2 Clarinets in Bb Alto Saxophone (optional) 2 Bassoons 2 Horns in F 3 Trumpets in Bb 3 Trombones Tuba Timpani Percussion (Side drum Bass drum Cymbal Glockenspiel) Strings (Violin 1 Violin 2 Viola Cello Bass)

Each verse features different sections of the orchestra. The final part has the benefit of some interesting harmonies more 'Wicken' than 'Arne'. Although no voice part is scored it is quite possible for the audience to join in at the traditional moments! The Violin 3 part is a treble clef version of the Viola partexcept for a few out-of-range notes.Duration: 4 minutes.

This edition is faithful to Parry's original orchestration with the exception that the Clarinets were in A and the Trumpet parts were originally written in F. Here Bb copies have been provided for both. The work may be played by orchestra alone or with the addition of a solo voice or a choir. We do not publish vocal or choral copies of this work but this orchestral edition is fully compatible with the original vocal and unison choral editions published by Roberton Publications and readily available.Duration: 2½ minutes Orchestration 2 Flutes 2 Oboes 2 Clarinets in Bb 2 Bassoons4 Horns in F 2 Trumpets in Bb 3 Trombones TimpaniStrings (Violin 1 Violin 2 Viola Cello Bass)Voice or chorus (optional)

Not a simplified arrangement just 2 Trumpet parts transposed into Bb (originally 3 in F) and the contra bassoon omitted.Duration: 2½ minutesOrchestration2 Flutes 2 Oboes 2 Clarinets in Bb 2 Bassoons 4 Horns in F 2 Trumpets in Bb 3 Trombones Tuba Timpani Strings (Violin 1 Violin 2 Viola Cello Bass)

Violin Violoncello and Orchestra-Handel's Concerto Grosso In G major Op.6/1 HWV 319 is scored for 2 solo Violins solo Cello 2 Oboes Bassoon Strings and Basso continuo. The Concerti Grossi Op.6 HWV 319-330 are 12 concerti for solo instruments (usually Violins and Cello) accompanied by a four-part string orchestra and Cembalo continuo. Originally published in 1739 they were written to be played during performances of Handel's oratorios and odes and are amongst the finest examples in the genre of Baroque Concerto Grosso.

Orchestration: 2 Flutes 2 Oboes 2 Clarinets in Bb 2 Bassoons 2 Horns in F 2 Trumpets in Bb 3 Trombones Tuba Snare drum Strings (Violin 1 Violin 2 Viola Cello Bass)Peter Warlock wrote the Capriol Suite for Piano duet. He also produced a version for string orchestra and both were published in 1926. Two years later in 1928 he made this arrangement for full orchestra. This new edition corrects a few minor errors that were present in the 1928 edition published by Curwen and also shows the trumpets in Bb; they were shown in C originally. The six movements which are based on sixteenth century dance tunes are:- Basse-Danse Pavane Tordion Bransles Pieds-en-l´air Mattachins.

In D minor, this arrangement is a very 'approachable' version of this masterwork. Strings will use a variety of bowings, and some position work is required of first violins and cellos. Winds, brass, and percussion will enjoy this symphonic experience. Scored for either full or string orchestra, with optional percussion. (4:00) / Orchestre

Score-Although in its own way an example of 'continuous' music Shaker Loops differs from most other works of its kind because it sees so much change within a relatively short amount of time. Also it avoids the formal and temporalpurity of much 'minimal' music by not adhering to a single unbending tempo throughout allowing for a freer movement from one level of energy to another.The 'loops' are melodic material assigned to the seven instruments each of a different length and which when heard together result in a constantly shifting play amongst the parts. The four sections although they meld together evenly are really quite distinct each being characterised by aparticular style of string playing. The outside movements are devoted to 'shaking' - fast tightly rhythmicised motion of the bow across the strings. The 'slews' of Part 2 are slow languid glissandi heard floating within analmost motionless pool of stationary sound whereas Part 3 is essentially melodic with cellos playing long lyrical lines (also loops) against a background of muted violins.
